Cover my eyes
Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie
It can't be true
That I'm losing you
The sun cannot fall from the sky
Can you hear heaven cry
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
Stop every clock
Stars are in shock
The river would run to the sea
I won't let you fly
I won't say goodbye
I won't let you slip away from me
Can you hear heaven cry
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
So hold on
Be strong
Everyday hope will grow
I'm here, don't you fear
Little one don't let go
(Oh)
Don't let go
(Oh)
Don't let go
(Oh)
Cover my eyes
Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie
Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie
It can't be true

The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
Stop every clock
Stars are in shock
The river would run to the sea
I won't let you fly
I won't say goodbye
I won't let you slip away from me
Can you hear heaven cry
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
The tears of an angel
So hold on
Be strong
Everyday hope will grow
I'm here, don't you fear
Little one don't let go
(Oh)
Don't let go

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
For anyone wondering, they wrote this song about their 4 year old niece who died from a brain tumor while they were recording the album.
Love this song, very sad.
Yeah it's about losing someone..
saddest song i've ever heard actually :( and one of the most beautiful
Definately about losing someone, and perhaps going into denial about it.
This is one of my favourite songs and one of the only ones to make me properly cry! The lyrics are just amazing.
Okay I didnt get this song at first and it confused me... can you explain how its about loosing someone? :) xxx

Whenever I feel like giving up in my battle with severe depression, I hear my mom singing this to me in my head. "Everyday hope will grow" and "I'm here, don't you fear little one, don't let go" really resonate with me and play in my head on a loop, and remind me that the last thing I want to is hurt my mom with my selfish decisions. She's my life, and the last thing I want for her is to be eternally distraught.
Suicide does not end the pain, it passes it on to someone else.
